Min Hee-jin Denies Involvement with NewJeans Production, Accuses HYBE of Unilateral Firing

On the 27th, MyDaily was informed by a representative for Min Hee-jin that on the 24th, the ADOR board had unexpectedly notified them of a meeting to discuss the change in CEO. Former CEO Min participated in the meeting through a phone call.

The representative emphasized that former CEO Min was dismissed without her consent, which is a clear violation of the shareholders’ agreement.

The company reiterated that former CEO Min will remain a producer for NewJeans, although this decision has not been mutually agreed upon. This is yet another instance of the company issuing a unilateral notice. Currently, former CEO Min is thoughtfully considering her choices.

On that particular day, ADOR released a formal announcement stating, “At our board meeting earlier today, we named Jo Young as ADOR’s new CEO. Jo is a highly skilled HR professional with a wealth of experience in diverse industries and will be dedicated to stabilizing and reorganizing ADOR’s structure.”

ADOR clarified that despite Min Hee-jin stepping down as CEO, she will still be a member of the board of directors and will continue to oversee the production work for NewJeans.

“ADOR will additionally divide its production and management roles, in keeping with the multi-label operation principle that has been consistently implemented by other labels. However, ADOR has been an anomaly in this regard as the CEO has overseen both production and management.”
